Use a rubric to monitor student progress. Students should be able to identify the central idea and provide supporting evidence with the prompting of a teacher. While reading a text in a whole group or small-group context, the teacher can prompt students by asking questions.
Examples:
- What is the most important thing that happened in the text? What are three details that tell you that?
- What is the most important point about this topic? What details tell you that?
